Libraries
Westminster Presbyterian Church is blessed with one of the best church libraries in the city. The Lowe Library has an outstanding collection of religious and theological books, as well as books on social issues, self-help, fiction, and biography. A small collection of religious periodicals, audio recordings of Westminster sermons and Town Hall Forums, religious videos, atlases, and reference materials are also available to the congregation.
The library, located on the main level of the church next to the office, is a wonderful place for quiet reading and study at any time during the week.
The Children’s Library, adjoining the Lowe Library, offers a broad variety of literature and videos for children and young adults, as well as a collection of parenting resources.
A card catalog in the Lowe Library allows patrons to locate materials in both collections. Both libraries are open during regular church office hours and are staffed by volunteers on Sunday mornings. For assistance in finding materials in either library, contact librarian Barbara Mauk at the church office, 612.332.3421.
If you have some suggestions for specific books or subject areas you would like to see added to the collection please send an email with your suggestion.
If you have time or talents to share we have a variety of long- and short-term projects available. We would like to have more of an active presence, that is volunteers, in the Children's Library on Sunday mornings. We could also use someone to help out on weekday mornings shelving books and doing small projects. If this sounds like a ministry you would be interested in, please call the church office, 612.332.3421.
